Puppet Pals - The Mouse's Tail

Today the Green Reading Group had their first go at using the Puppet Pals app for reading.

The free version of this app lets the kids take photos and use them as characters, and use their own background. The children said they liked it because it was a fun way to practise their reading. The part that they didn't like was that they couldn't delete parts if they made a mistake.

The app is available by clicking the link below- it would be a great way for your child to practise their reading and fluency at home too!

Mrs Derbyshire @ Auroa School

I am a teacher at Auroa School in South Taranaki, New Zealand. I am currently on a sabbatical as part of the Science Teaching Leadership Programme. This programme is administered through the Royal Society of NZ, and funded by the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment. For the first 6 months of 2016 I will be based at Rotokare Scenic Reserve, learning about Science in the real world, whilst doing lots of training about teaching science. I'm looking forward to returning to school to work with the other teachers to make our science programme even better than it already is.

About Room 8

We are a year 0-2 class at Auroa School in South Taranaki, on the West Coast of New Zealand. Our school is surrounded by farmland, but we are not far from the beach either. We love technology at our school, and we use iPads and Macs and Apple Tv to enhance our learning. We have 2 teachers in our class. This is Miss Nicholas' blog. Please leave a comment, we love to see who has visited.
